social media

Social Media for modern lovers in the digital age.

Social Media is Shaping a Whole New Generation of Narcissists
In the era of me, my cellphone, and I, if I were to ask you what's the first thing that you do right when you wake up, chances are that the answer would be 'I check my social media'.

Centuries-old, the same stories told, making little to no impact on the continent made us sore. Speaking our truth would make us soar, and so the narrative changes!

Capturing Moments
As an 18 year old, I have been fortunate to grow up surrounded by changing technology, and this allowed me to develop my love for photography. Capturing moments in time is beautiful to me, and I always enjoy being able to look back on the memories that are encaptured with them. Growing up, taking photos became more important to me so that I can freeze moments with my friends, my family, and have them forever to treasure as life becomes more hectic with every year that passes.

I Solved the 100k Puzzle
I finished the 100k QR code puzzle on Feb 21st, 2021. The completed puzzle 🧩 is still sitting on my coffee table. It serves as a reminder of how hard it was and how good it felt to finish it. It's also a cause of great disappointment because I'm not $100,000 richer. In fact, I only won .25 cents.

Smoke and Mirrors
I’ve always been a private person. When people I know add me on IG, their first response is usually “woah, you have like, thousands of followers??”

#NotebookChallenge21
It was an Instagram and Twitter thing, but she’d been obsessed long before that… long before it had become a; “thing”. Now, it was all about the photo, not the content, not the sharing. You found the notebook, took a quick snap and posted it on social media, before you even looked inside. Nowadays it was just a hashtag. #NotebookChallenge21.

Little Black Book
I read a book once in which the author explained the importance of keeping your brain active. Apparently, our brains are lazy. Take that, Dad. I’m biologically wired to be lazy.

Touched By A Stranger
She is a kind hearted soul, deeply entrenched in the vouyerism of our cyber world. Elisa spent her days much like any other. She wakes with coffee, her trusted phone, and her FaceBook app. She opens and begins to scroll. Hours pass as she love reacts to random photo posts, leaves an encouraging message for a stranger going through a tough time, leaves a snippet of what her day will be like. Never truly knowing the impact of her actions, like so many of us.

It is a Sunday night at the gym, which means it is quiet and I am bored. As I wander between the treadmills, I listen to the sounds of metal on metal, the odd bang and strained grunt. The music in the background is a low hum of shitty pop. I walk for hours, trying to find someone to talk to, walking up and down the floor in a jaded haze, but there is no one I know.

Bigger than Numbers
“Trauma. I’ve been hearing that word a lot lately. Trauma....trauma.... trauma. Almost sounds trivial when it's repeated, like a professor repeating the definition of a vocabulary term nobody’s going to remember by Thursday’s quiz. I don’t know...maybe they just like hearing themselves talk.

You're a Fake & a Phoney
I hear it all the time, "they went viral, what am I doing wrong?". Nothing darling, you are doing everything right, they are running their social media without integrity or honesty. So, when they lay their head on their pillow at night, their thoughts may be "what if my campaign manager finds out?" rather than "wow, today I made some really unique online connections!".

Sorry for the Delay
Millennial. Ask anyone who isn’t one, and you’ll likely hear something along the lines of : “Lazy, entitled job-hoppers due to participation trophies and bad parenting!”
